Unlocking FRP lock on G8 ThinQ - LG G8 Guides, News, & Discussion

Hello everyone I'm new to this forum but I'm at the end of my ropes. I bought a phone off of eBay it's a great phone but it's FRP locked!! And the last owner does not have the information to unlock it. I tried every YouTube video I possibly get my hands on but no luck.
I even paid somebody in Spain to unlock it through a company but they didn't have the tools to unlock it either. I'm really hoping that someone here in this forum has bypassed the FRP lock on this specific phone.
Here is my specific phone: LG G8 ThinQ LM-G820UM. Someone also told me that I could re flash the ROM, it is a Verizon prepaid phone.
I'll be willing to try that if someone can give me a step by step instructions how to do it and what tool I will need.
Thank you for any help that you can possibly give me.
Thanks

[Troubleshooting] Help Required from Pro Developers

Hello concerned,
I've got LG G4 H11 10n running Lollipop from T-Mobile. My cousin sent me as a gift.
I got it with some google account already entered. So being fair I did factory reset of phone to set the phone on my google account. I never knew i had to remember the google account and unfortunately neither me and my cousin remembers which google account it was previously using.
So,
Problem 1:
I need to get through "The device was reset. Enter the google account that was previously synced." and use my own account instead of the previous as i do not know it and was not mine anyway.
Moving further to my other major problem.
Problem 2:
I got this phone Sim Locked and i want to Unlock my Sim card. As I am not in the United States.
I don't want to buy codes from websites. Neither I was able to use Device Unlock App from T-Mo for Temporary/Permanent unlock.
I am much interested to unlock my phone via development. I've searched too many posts but found out that Rooting or Flashing of Stock ROM won't unlock it either.
Summary:
First of all i need help to set up my own google account then I need to unlock it for my carrier.
Any help regarding these matters will be highly obliged. Kindly refer any post that solves my problems if anyone knows.

I'm not entirely sure, but I believe flashing a global Rom port will work?
I've got MM update. If I update my phone will it resolve sim unlock issue?
If not, refer a stable Global ROM port. Because I searched a Global ROM port which was only for H811 10h as my phone is H811 10n. And the Dev. warned not to flash it on 10n or else my device will be bricked. Need help.

The marshmallow update 20i will not fix the sim unlock. You need a port from the h815.
Rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/development/h815-genisys-rom-1-0-classic-v10g-t3192649
I had best success with 3.4 genysis
Kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/orig-development/kernel-t3213145
Use the latest 1.7 version.
Thanks for your support so far Vseprz.
Isn't it better to try GLOBAL M STOCK ROM from this Thread?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-g4/development/global-marshmallow-6-0-port-to-h811-t3232760
I just came to knew that Flashing a Global ROM won't unlock my device either. Is this correct? Please I need to get through this.

That is okay if you want a complete stock build. Otherwise genysis has many nice qol tweaks and updates already done for you.
I believe i heard that the sim unlock that is built in to the 20i update actually works as opposed to the useless versions in older updates if that helps you

Samsung SGH-T879 Network Unlock

SGH-T879
IMEI: 352297050218011
S/N: R21C85KK7KN
Please that's the model of my phone. Since I got it as a gift from a friend to use in Nigeria I can't just unlock the network. Please I need help to unlock the network so I can start using it . It's a Samsung
I would like to know how to unlock it too without having to buy a code. I just got a Note yesterday and am looking to have it unlocked.
Sorry for double posting, but I have an update.
So I gave my phone to somebody (professional let's say) and he unlocked it for me. I was sure that he did it via a code, but searching through my phone's internal SD files I was able to locate a folder called "Galaxy_S_Unlock" so I did a bit of research. This is used to unlock the original Galaxy S phone without the need of a code.
I do not know if this phone could be unlocked the same way via some modifications of the original "Galaxy_S_Unlock" files, but at this point in time I doubt I will get an answer.
Anyway, good luck with that.

L90 Network Unlock

Hello everybody.
So... I understand pretty good all terms about rooting, flashing and roms.
The thing is that I have a LG L90 with CM 13 and I've noticed today that it only accepts one SIM Carrier, it's network blocked.
I want to insert another SIM from another company, but I do not know how to unlock the network restriction.
Does anybody have any idea of how to do that?
I remember owning a samsung ACE and some guy developed a tool to unlock network just using an APK.
Please, xda, help me. You're my only hope.

Hello the only way i know how to unlock is to ask t mobile. Did you buy the phone directly from t mobile?, if so you can ask them to send you a unlock code which you can input in your phone to unlock. Simple as that.

Hi. I've tried with my carrier (telcel/Mexico). They told me, they could not unlock it. They tried but didn't work. Told me the reason could be because i have a custom ROM (CM 13).
So i'm looking for alternative methods.
Got back to stock and call your cellphone provider again. You can go back to stock using LG Flash Tool and the correct kdz for your phone model.

Moto e5 Supra (cricket wireless)/Moto E5 Plus? Same? options?

Greetings, I just picked up the Moto e5 Supra (cricket wireless). Gotta say the 5,000mah battery is awesome and the waterproofing is a nice feature. After not having an android since Note 2 I decided to move back from Apple after my iPhone 6s Plus had issues with the digitizer board flexing. Found this beauty of a phone for a great deal at a local Cricket store for $150..
I guess i have a few questions about this phone and rooting. To start can anyone confirm that this is the same as the Moto E5 Plus? Below is my phones info. Basically looking for confirmation. Also any other info on this phone and rooting/ROMS would be appreciated. it's been a while since i last had my Note 2.

According to this, it is in fact the e5 Plus with a different name.
I have the Boost Mobile (Sprint) E5 Plus XT1924-8 and it's the same specs. I was able to unlock the bootloader and root via the instructions on the E5 forum, just have to make sure to make a backup in TWRP.
Please help me unlock my bootloader. I have the cricket wireless varient. Says its ineligible to be unlocked. XT1924-6
It can't be done if it's from Cricket
any updates on this?
I just found this in my developer options for me e5 supra... this means I shpuld be good to go right?

I am actually getting ready to start the root process myself I do remember about Motos was that the carrier didn't matter because Motorola comes unlocked . the carrier can hide that from you but the unlock process was actually on the Motorola website if you go to motorola.com or.net or whatever it is all the instructions you need are there to unlock the bootloader mode which by the way he happens to be the hardest part of the whole process all of its easy . I don't mind helping out where I can mix anyone needs it but TBH I'm not nearly as experienced as most these guys

try the lolinet website for moto E5 Plus (hannah) if your on cricket. flash the factory firmware and it has to be a build equivalent to whats currently flashed or newer.
